News Zelenskyy tells reporters over WhatsApp that restrictions on Ukraine's Starlink systems remain. Interceptor drones can't function, logistics and operations hobbled. The maximum speed is 161 kph;
"exceeding this limit causes the Starlink connection to cut out completely, resulting in the loss of the drone."
︀︀He says Ukraine has done tests to determine whether SpaceX is truly facing technical issues, as has been told Kyiv by the US side, or if this is a "deliberate operation. to restrict us, cut us off, and prevent us from defending ourselves and protecting our people, both at the front and among the civilian population."
︀︀He says Ukraine "sent a couple of vehicles equipped with Starlink terminals into European Union territory."
︀︀
︀︀"They moved at speeds exceeding 180kph, and the Starlink systems worked perfectly. We have the relevant logs and evidence to prove this."
He adds: "The conclusion is clear: the restrictions are in effect within Ukraine but do not apply within the European Union. In other words, this is a planned operation."

News Polish PM Tusk: Everyone was aware that, with this shift in President Trump's position on Ukraine and Russia, Europe should support Ukraine even more. Many countries realize that if Ukraine falls, we will all have very, very serious problems. 17 Oct 2026
There has never been such a unified position among practically all EU countries. Even those who are less pro-Ukrainian,who sometimes show signs of weakness toward Putin,had no doubts that the next several months will be crucial,perhaps not only for the history and future of Ukraine, but for the whole of Europe. Everyone expects an increase in Russian escalation and provocations on a larger scale.

7 KILOMETERS ON AN ELECTRIC SCOOTER WITH A SEVERED LEG: AN INCREDIBLE RESCUE STORY OF A UKRAINIAN SOLDIER
- During an assault on enemy positions, a Ukrainian soldier engaged in close-quarters combat and eliminated an occupier, but sustained a severe injury himself. Due to significant blood loss, he would lose consciousness every time he tried to stand up.
- An electric scooter became his only chance to escape. The command of the code__9.2 unit delivered the scooter using a heavy-lift drone. Despite his injury, the soldier covered 17 kilometers, reaching speeds of up to 52 km/h.
- Throughout the journey, he was covered by Ukrainian FPV drones, while fiber-optic cables kept getting tangled in the scooter’s wheels, complicating the evacuation. • Ultimately, the soldier managed to reach a location where a fellow soldier picked him up by car.
- "I’m glad I’m still alive," says the defender.

News Trump Puts a Hold on Russian Sanctions
"President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday waiving new sanctions and tariffs on Russia. The move effectively neutralizes the law by lifting provisions that barred the president from removing sanctions against Russia and preventing a host of new sanctions and penalties from taking effect on Oct. 18 -- the deadline set by the law.

WAR Russia uses AI to fake battlefield victories in Ukraine — UNITED24 Media
Russia Is Integrating AI Models into Its Cognitive Warfare Campaign Against Ukraine
The tactic existed even before the current boom in generative AI. Small Russian groups would try to infiltrate far ahead between Ukrainian positions, reach a building or the outskirts of a settlement, unfurl a Russian flag in front of a drone camera, and immediately flee or, more often, be killed shortly afterward. The mere appearance of the flag would then be used as evidence that Russia supposedly controlled the settlement.
But now there is no longer always a need to send a soldier with a flag one can simply be generated.
